NEWS Leaked Documents Reveal Dothan Police Department Planted Drugs on Young Black Men For Years, District Attorney Doug Valeska Complicit

HUNDREDS OF CASES PROSECUTED WITH PLANTED EVIDENCE, MANY WRONGLY CONVICTED STILL IN PRISON


The Alabama Justice Project has obtained documents that reveal a Dothan Police Department’s Internal Affairs investigation was covered up by the district attorney. A group of up to a dozen police officers on a specialized narcotics team were found to have planted drugs and weapons on young black men for years. They were supervised at the time by Lt. Steve Parrish, current Dothan Police Chief, and Sgt. Andy Hughes, current Asst. Director of Homeland Security for the State of Alabama. All of the officers reportedly were members of a Neoconfederate organization that the Southern Poverty Law Center labels “racial extremists.” The group has advocated for blacks to “return” to Africa, published that the civil rights movement is really a Jewish conspiracy, and that blacks have lower IQ’s . Both Parrish and Hughes held leadership positions in the group and are pictured above holding a confederate battle flag at one of the club’s secret meetings.

The documents shared reveal that the internal affairs investigation was covered up to protect the aforementioned officers’ law enforcement careers and keep them from being criminally prosecuted.

Several long term Dothan law enforcement officers, all part of an original group that initiated the investigation, believe the public has a right to know that the Dothan Police Department, and District Attorney Doug Valeska, targeted young black men by planting drugs and weapons on them over a decade. Most of the young men were prosecuted, many sentenced to prison, and some are still in prison. Many of the officers involved were subsequently promoted and are in leadership positions in law enforcement. They hope the mood of the country is one that demands action and that the US Department of Justice will intervene.

The group of officers requested they be granted anonymity, and shared hundreds of files from the Internal Affairs Division. They reveal a pattern of criminal behavior from within the highest levels of the Dothan Police Department and the district attorney’s office in the 20th Judicial District of Alabama. Multiple current and former officers have agreed to testify if United States Attorney General Loretta Lynch appoints a special prosecutor from outside the state of Alabama, or before a Congressional hearing. The officers believe that there are currently nearly a thousand wrongful convictions resulting in felonies from the 20th Judicial District that are tied to planted drugs and weapons and question whether a system that allows this can be allowed to continue to operate.

Stopped at a rest stop in Dothan back in college when we were heading down to Panama City for Spring Break. Wasn't necessarily a place that painted a good picture about the rest of Alabama for whatever that's worth.

Let me just note that the public and the media give way too much credibility to the SPLC.

I had a coworker here in Lagos whose brother works in their HQ. She used to work there as well before she resigned, she says because of the disorganization, corruption and racial bias there. This coworker is probably somewhere to the left of Jon, so I found her credible.

Doesn't change the fact that this entire police department needs to be turned over, but being listed as an extremist group by the SPLC is meaningless.

That's believable and the meaningless part is definitely true although back in the 90's the SPLC played a significant role in exposing and eventually taking down Richard Butler and the Aryan Nations up here. So there is at least a little good that they do. :nod:

I know local law enforcement in these parts considers groups like the Constitutionalist Party to be potential extremists. And they don't even plant evidence and wrongfully convict hundreds of people of the same skin color. They just arm themselves to the teeth and claim sovereignty.

I wonder if Dothan law enforcement were aware of...oh wait.... :lol:

The SPLC used to be a legitimate organization until relatively recently. Around the turn of the century they basically went full retard. I think there were some significant personnel shifts that caused it, but now they are no better than some of the organizations they call extreme.

It's one thing to be racist and keep it to yourself. But planting stuff on people you arrest is completely fucked up and they deserve any and all jail time and/or lawsuits coming their way.

And CID is right about SPLC too. They're almost as bad on the other side. EDIT: I see I basically said the same thing as post above from a minute earlier. Cool.

Hey BLM idiots…this is where you should be outraged and asking questions calling for more sensible drug laws and enforcement. Not when some unknown person smears a poop swastika on a bathroom wall or after a cop has shot an unarmed teen before any investigation into the facts has been carried out.

Too bad you have cried wolf so many times that it will be hard to get sympathy from people over this.

and that blacks have lower IQ’s
Blacks do have lower IQs on average. That's not really disputable. You can argue about whether or not IQ is a legitimate measure of intelligence, etc. But you can't argue that Blacks don't generally have lower IQs.

I don't know why they had to throw that one in there. If you say Blacks have lower IQs you're just telling the truth.

NEWS Leaked Documents Reveal Dothan Police Department Planted Drugs on Young Black Men For Years, District Attorney Doug Valeska Complicit

HUNDREDS OF CASES PROSECUTED WITH PLANTED EVIDENCE, MANY WRONGLY CONVICTED STILL IN PRISON


The Alabama Justice Project has obtained documents that reveal a Dothan Police Department’s Internal Affairs investigation was covered up by the district attorney.

Which do you hate worse John? Blacks, or whites sympathetic to their problems with police?
What I "hate" is Whites who buy into the "Black Victim" crap in today's context. You know, all that "White Privilege" crap and stuff like that when it's OBViOUS that our society is bending over backwards to try to see to it that Blacks succeed. There's an overall tendency, I think, to blame the problems Blacks have on other people and I think that's a bunch of crap at this point. And I have NO respect for White people who facilitate that kind of nonsense.

Like seeing those idiot young White people marching in those "Black LIves Matter" marches. Dumbasses. Totally brainwashed with no clue.

If those same young White people apply to a university they're going to face a situation where if it's between them and a Black person gaining admission the Black person is going to get "points" because they're Black. They could end up not getting admitted to the school they want to go to because the school selects some Black person who is less objectively qualified than they are while using the excuse that it promotes "diversity."

Yet they're out there buying into this crap about how the society doesn't think "Black Lives Matter." What a bunch of tools.
